"I Believe in Your Sweet Love" is a song recorded by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler for her fourth studio album, Goodbye to the Island (1981). It was written and produced by Ronnie Scott and Steve Wolfe, and released in November 1979 by RCA Records. The lyrics depict Tyler offering someone a romantic relationship.
The song was a hit in Canada, where it reached number 27 on the RPM Adult Contemporary chart. Record Mirror nominated it as a single of the week upon its release.
Background
Tyler's success was in decline after she failed to match the success of her 1978 single "It's a Heartache" with subsequent releases. Diamond Cut (1979) only reached number 145 in the United States, and its most successful singles "Too Good to Last" and "My Guns Are Loaded" only saw regional success in mainland Europe.
Tyler released two singles in late 1979; "Sitting on the Edge of the Ocean", which saw her win the World Popular Song Festival in Japan, and "I Believe in Your Sweet Love".
